Yarn can be dangerous to the health and well-being of your child.

October 23rd, 2007

If you have small children and skeins of yarn lying around, you may be asking for trouble. A small child with even a small length of yarn can be an accident waiting to happen. To protect your children, you should store your yarn in a safe place where children cannot reach. To avoid disaster, and possibly death, you should not allow children to play with yarn. Children have a tendency to place strands of yarn around their necks, which could pose a problem. The risk of strangling is great when children are allowed to play with yarn unsupervised.
